We’re closing out 2023 and an amazing Season 2 of Stage Combat with a holiday bang!
It’s THE STAGE COMBAT HOLIDAY SPECIAL! Get your Santa mug out and fill it with hot chocolate and settle in. We’ve got an hour of holiday music and stories as Sean pops around the country to share holiday greetings with some of our favorite guests from two seasons of Stage Combat!
No matter what holiday you celebrate, let’s celebrate each other!
And there’s a special announcement about Stage Combat at the end of the episode!
Special thanks to Rebecca Caine, Courtney Loving, Alex Griffitt, Ellen Warner, Dr. Alisa Hurwitz, Brian Sheppard, LaQuet Sharnell Pringle, Dr. Michelle Sherman, Ian Southwood.
Content note: We were so excited chatting about the movie White Christmas in this episode that we erroneously stated Donald O’Connor starred with Bing Crosby in the film. Thanks to listener Abby for pointing out that it was actually the incredible Danny Kaye!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
